networking
network printing
The HP Business Inkjet 2200/2250 can be shared on a network. It can
be connected directly to a network using an HP JetDirect print server or
attached to a computer that is connected to a network.
Network Basics
Networks consist of computers connected together to share information
and resources, such as printers. On a "client-server" network, client
computers send print jobs to dedicated server computers that control the
use of each printer. On a "peer-to-peer" network, dedicated servers are
not used to control printers. Instead, each computer is configured to send
print jobs directly to the printer.
Network Printing Configurations
There are two basic types of network printing configurations:
client-server and peer-to-peer.
HP JetDirect EIO card
Peer-to-Peer printing.
Individual computers
manage their print
jobs.
Client-server printing.
Server manages print
jobs.
Client-Server Configuration
Server
Client-server printing is typically used in medium to large networks where
dedicated computer servers manage the printing needs of many users.
Client-server networks use network operating systems (NOS) such as
Novell NetWare and Windows NT Server 4.0, or Windows 2000.
4-1
Supported Network Configurations for Client-Server Printing

Peer-to-Peer Configuration
Peer-to-peer printing is more suitable for smaller networks. With peer-topeer printing, you configure your Windows 95, Windows 98, or
Windows NT 4.0/2000 systems to print directly to the printer.
Supported Network Configurations for Peer-to-Peer Printing
• Windows 95
• Windows 98
• Windows NT 4.0/2000
Installing the Printer on a Network with an
HP JetDirect Print Server (Recommended)
JetDirect
Card
Your printer can be shared in a network environment by connecting it
directly to the network via an HP JetDirect external or internal print
server. This configuration provides better performance than printing
through a computer, as well as flexibility in preparing a location for the
printer.
The HP JetDirect print server can be used in both client-server and peerto-peer network configurations.
4-2
Installing the HP JetDirect Internal Print Server Card
Note: The HP Business Inkjet 2250TN comes with an internal EIO JetDirect print
server card preinstalled. It is recommended that the printer be shared on a network
through the print server. If you own the HP Business Inkjet 2250TN, skip this
section.
If you own an HP Business Inkjet 2200/2250 printer other than the
HP Business Inkjet 2250TN, you can purchase an internal JetDirect print
server for it. For the list of HP JetDirect EIO print servers, see page 8-5.
Step 1 - Install the HP JetDirect EIO Print Server Card
Caution: The HP JetDirect card contains electronic components that can be
damaged by static electricity. To prevent buildup of static electricity, maintain
frequent contact with any bare sheet metal surface on the printer. If possible, wear
a grounding wrist strap (or similar device). Handle the card carefully at all times.
Avoid touching electronic components or circuit paths.
1.
Turn OFF the printer and unplug the power cord.
2.
Unscrew and remove the metal plate on either side of the printer.
3.
Insert the card. Align the card with the guide rails in the printer.
4.
Press the card into the slot until the card is firmly seated.
5.
Tighten each thumbscrew a little at a time, alternating between each
side until both screws are secure.
6.
Connect the network cable to the card.
Note: The JetDirect card can be installed on either side of the printer.
Step 2 - Verify that the Printer Works
1.
Connect the power cord and turn ON the printer.
2.
Press the Menu button repeatedly until INFORMATION appears.
4-3
3.
Press the Item button repeatedly until PRINT CONFIGURATION
PAGE appears.
4.
Press the Resume button to print the configuration page.
Note: Because you have installed an HP JetDirect card, two configuration pages
will print. The JetDirect Configuration Page contains setup information (for
example, LAN HW ADDRESS) that may be needed for the next step.
Step 3 – Install the Printer Software
1.
Install the PCL5 and PS printer driver from the Starter CD. For more
information on using the Starter CD to install printer drivers, see
page 3-1.
Sharing the Printer on a Network
Note: This procedure is for enabling a PC to use a shared printer. It assumes that
the printer driver is already installed on the PC and that the printer is currently
being shared on a network.
In this configuration, the printer is connected directly to the parallel port
of a selected computer (or server) on the network and is shared by the
other computers (or clients). The server could be a computer running
Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows 95, Windows 98, or
Windows NT 4.0/2000. Sharing the printer in this configuration is
easy.
Use this configuration only in small groups or when usage is low. The
shared computer is slowed down when many users print to its shared
printer.
4-4
Clients can connect to the printer in three different ways:
• Install the printer software from the Starter CD and connect as a
client using the network installation.
• Browse to the printer on the network and drag the printer to your
Printers folder. The printer software is not installed on your
computer; the shared computer controls the printer driver
software.
• Add the printer and install the software from the INF file located
on your network. Ask your network administrator where the INF
is located.
On the Starter CD the INF files are stored in folders using the
following format <CD>:\Windows\<driver>\<OS>\<lang>. For
example, if your CD drive letter is D:,
D:\Windows\PCL5\Win2k\ENU contains the English
Windows 2000 PCL5 INF file.

Tips for Avoiding Paper Jams
• Make sure nothing is blocking the paper path.
7-6
• Do not overload the paper trays. Both paper trays hold up to
250 sheets of plain paper or other print material measuring
0.98" (25 mm) in thickness (whichever is less).
• Load paper properly.
• Do not use paper that is curled or crumpled.
• Always use paper that conforms with those listed in the Printer
Specifications section.
• Always stack paper neatly when printing on both sides of the
page (manual duplex).
Unexpected Printer Shutdown
• Check the power
Make sure the power cord is connected firmly to the printer and to
a working outlet, and that the printer is turned on. The LED on the
front panel of the printer should be green. Try turning the printer
OFF, then ON again.
• Check the printer's vents
If the printer's vents are covered, and the printer overheats, it
automatically turns off. Make sure the vents are not covered and
the printer is in a cool, dry location.
Nothing is Printed
• Be patient
Complex documents containing many fonts, graphics, and/or
color photos take longer to begin printing. The LED blinks green
when the printer is processing information.
• Check the power
Make sure the power cord is connected firmly to the printer and to
a working outlet, and that the printer is turned on. The LED on the
front panel of the printer should be green. Try turning the printer
OFF, then ON again.
• Check the paper
Make sure paper is loaded correctly in the tray and that the
paper is not jammed in the printer.
• Check the ink cartridges and printheads
Make sure the ink cartridges and printheads are properly
installed. Properly close the printhead cover and printhead
access cover. Make sure the shipping tape has been removed
from the printheads.
• Try printing a “sample page”
1. Press the Menu button until INFORMATION MENU appears.
2. Press the Item button until PRINT DEMO appears.
7-7
3. Press the Resume button to print the demo page.
• Check the printer setup
Make sure your HP Business Inkjet printer is selected as the
current or default printer and that Pause Printing is not checked.
• Check the network setup
Make sure that your printer is properly setup in the network
environment.
A Blank Page is Printed
• Check the printheads for tape
Make sure you have removed the printhead shipping tape that
covers the ink nozzles.
• Check the printer setup
Make sure your printer is selected as the current or default
printer.
• Check the parallel port on your computer
Make sure your printer is connected directly to the parallel port.
Do not share the port with other devices such as a Zip drive.
Placement of the Text or Graphics is Wrong
• The paper size or orientation settings may be incorrect
Make sure the paper size and page orientation selected in the
software program match the settings in the HP print settings
dialog box.
• The paper may not be loaded correctly
If everything on the page is slanted or skewed, make sure the
paper width and length adjusters fit snugly against the left and
bottom edges of the paper stack, and that there are no more
than 250 sheets of paper or a stack of paper 0.98" (25 mm)
thick loaded in either of the paper trays.
• The margin settings may be wrong
If the text or graphics are cut off at the edges of the page, make
sure the margin settings for the document do not exceed the
printable area of your printer.
• Printable area is not set correctly for a LaserJet document
When printing documents formatted for a LaserJet, pages in your
document may get cropped, truncated or the content of one page
may overflow to the next. Set the Emulate LaserJet Margins
option in the printer driver.
7-8
Something on the Page is Missing or Incorrect
• The margin settings may be wrong
Make sure the margin settings for the document do not exceed
the printable area of your printer.
• Color print settings may be wrong
Grayscale is probably selected in the HP print settings dialog
box.
• The wrong printer may be selected
Make sure the correct printer is selected as the current or default
printer.
• The Symmetrical Margins option makes the left and right margins
equal and top and bottom margins equal. If the page appears
incorrect, make sure this setting is not selected in the printer
driver.
Printer Takes a Long Time to Print a Job
• Check your system configuration
The minimum system configuration for your printer is
486-66 MHz with 8 MB RAM. However, the printer performance
is optimized for Pentium machines.
• There may be insufficient hard disk space in your system
If you are printing graphics-intensive files, make sure you have
enough (more than 50 MB) hard disk space.
• The port setting configuration in your system is not set to ECP
(Windows 3.1x/95/98 only)
See the manual that comes with your computer for information on
how to change your port setting or contact your computer
manufacturer.
Printing Takes a Long Time Over the Network
• Set the print queue to accept only RAW data
In a Windows NT 4.0 client-server environment, the print server
can be configured to accept only RAW data. In this configuration
the client computer creates the RAW data instead of the print
server. To enable this option:
1. Click Start and select Settings, followed by Printers.
2. Right-click the printer icon and select Properties.
3. Click the General tab.
4. Click Print Processor.
5. Check Always Spool RAW Datatype and click OK.
7-9
• Set the port monitor
Use the port software that comes with HP Web JetAdmin, instead
of Microsoft LPR port software. Also, for optimal printing and
spooling of 8.5" x 14" (216 x 356 mm) size jobs, the TCP/IP
Idle time out value of the EIO card should be set to at least 360
seconds. To enable this option:
1. Click Start and select Settings, followed by Printers.
2. Right-click the printer icon and select Modify.
3. Click Next.
4. Set the TCP/IP Idle time out to at least 360.
5. Click Next and then Finish.
• Reduce the complexity of the file
Reduce the complexity of the file by reducing the number of
colors used to create it.
• Print the file from a different application
Some applications handle complex print files more efficiently
than others. Try printing your file from another application.

Installation Notes
When you are operating in a Windows environment, the setup software
will detect the version of the operating system that you are running. The
software will be installed in the language that you have selected in your
Windows Control Panel. This means that you can be running an English
version of Windows and have the language preference set to Spanish,
and the installation utility will install the Spanish version of the printing
software.
Upgrading from an older version of Windows
After completing the upgrade to a new version of Windows, you must
reinstall the printer driver. For Example, if you upgrade from Window
NT 4.0 to Windows 2000, you must reinstall the printer driver.
Identifying different printer drivers in Windows NT 4.0
If you have already installed a printer driver that was supplied with your
Windows operating system for the printer, and you have also installed
the printing software supplied with the printer, multiple printer drivers
might exist on your computer system. Use these steps to find out which
drivers are installed.
1.
From the Start menu, click Settings and then click Printers.
2.
Right-click on the printer name and then click Properties.
3.
At the Properties window, click the General tab and then click the
Print Test Page button.
10-1
If you are using the printer driver that is provided for the printer, the
Printer Test Page will include the following information (shown with
sample data).
Printer Name:
<user definable>
Printer Model:
HP Business Inkjet 2200/2250
Driver Name:
PSCRIPT.DRV
Driver Version:
4.00
Installing the Printer Driver Only
If you obtained only a printer driver and its associated files (for example,
through HP's web page), install them using the following steps.
1.
Close all applications, terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) programs,
and virus checkers.
2.
If you are in Windows 3.1x, click Run from the File menu in
Program Manager. If you are in Windows 9x or above, from the
Start menu, click Settings, then Printers, and then double-click Add
Printer.
3.
When prompted to select a printer, click Have Disk. Use Browse to
enter the appropriate path to where the driver files are located.
4.
Follow the instructions on your screen to complete the installation.
Current HP Business Inkjet users
If you currently have an HP Business Inkjet printer driver installed on your
computer system, this printing software can be safely installed. It can
coexist with drivers for different printers. It will replace and update only
previous versions of the printing software for this printer. The new printer
driver will have property pages similar to your older printer driver, but it
will reflect the features and capabilities of the current driver.
Specific Printer Features/Issues
The printer driver provides default properties for most applications. You
need to change these properties only if you are installing a new printer
option, such as the optional Tray 2, or more memory; or if you are
changing a specific feature.
To complete the request for property changes, use either the Apply
button or the OK button. The Apply button activates the changes without
closing the Properties dialog box. The OK button activates the changes
and closes the Properties dialog box.

To activate grayscale printing, change the Print Color as Gray setting to
on. This overrides your color settings and prints your documents in black
and white (monochrome, grayscale). Grayscale means shades of gray,
starting with white and ending with black. When a color document is
printed in grayscale, colors are converted to their grayscale equivalents,
which means that different colors are represented as different shades of
gray. This printer can produce up to 256 shades of gray. Color images
that are printed as monochrome print faster and are easier to reproduce
on monochrome devices such as copiers and fax machines. When Print
Color as Gray is on, ALL of your documents will print as grayscale until
the setting is changed to off.

HP ColorSmart technology is a set of defaults that automatically tune
your color printer output. The HP ColorSmart defaults provide highquality output when colored objects (text, graphics, or images) are
printed.
Choose from the following HP ColorSmart options:
Automatic lets the printer driver optimize the color settings for text,
graphics, and images (photos). Color is optimized based on the type of
data being sent to the printer. This option automatically selects the
appropriate color settings for the document you are printing. This
provides you with screen-matched or WYSIWYG color output without
any changes to the printer driver. The automatic setting is best for most
applications.
Manual lets you adjust the color control independently for printed text,
graphics, and images. The color options are vivid or screen match.

screen match.
Color Control (Vivid and Screen Match)
Color control is a Manual Color Option that controls the type of color
produced by the printer.
The Vivid color option produces colors that are very bright and vivid.
When you use Vivid color, your color output is brighter than the colors
that appear on your screen.
The Screen Match color option provides the best match between screen
and printer. It produces colors that are close to the colors you see on
your screen. Screen Match can be useful when you are retouching
photographs or when you have created colors that you wish to
reproduce in your printed output. Note that factors such as the type of
10-5
monitor you use and the room's lighting can affect the appearance of
colors on your screen.
Text
In some applications, colored, filled, or rotated text is treated as a
graphic or as a photo.
Graphics
Graphics include items such as bar graphs, pie charts, or tables.
Image
Images (photos) can be in the form of raster images, bitmaps, and
device-independent bitmaps (DIBs). Some examples of photos are
pictures from a CD-ROM, pictures taken by a digital camera, and
images that were scanned by a desktop scanner.

Options: 1, 2, and 4 pages per sheet; Windows NT 4.0/2000 also
offers 6, 9, and 16 pages per sheet, with all NT 4.0/2000 settings in
both portrait and landscape and rotated landscape orientation.
The Pages per Sheet option, sometimes called layout or n-up, specifies
the number of pages to print on a single sheet of paper. The multiple
pages appear decreased in size and arranged based on the number of
pages printed on the sheet. The Pages per Sheet option does not work
effectively with all page setup options. Some applications request a
different resolution, page size, or paper source, or orientations for
different pages of a document. Combining page setup options while
using the Pages per Sheet option might produce unexpected print results.
